"Deep within Nightshade, in a forest far away lies a tall castle spirited by few trees, It lay a boy with black hair and red eyes dressed in a simple dark shirt and trousers and had a coat on, he was seated at the back of his father who had similar features to him
"The demons have increased, what the hell are you doing" His father spoke in a clear tone
He looked down with nervousness as he couldn't dare look his father in the eye, he felt like a disappointment to his lineage. His family had always succeeded in driving away the demons but he couldn't help but feel he was lacking
After his dad was through scolding him he grabbed his sword and left the room, he encountered his sister on the way to his room and smiled as she little tried to cheer him up
"Come on Astra I know you're very strong so don't be hard on yourself" She smiled
Astra smiled cheerfully as he patted his sister's head as he headed outside, he had to go and deal with more demons because they were already out of hand
"No worries Saya, one day you'll know me as the greatest demon hunter" He grinned
He then left outside and went to the forest which was known to be the most populated with demons, the forest was darker than the rest of the world but Astra was already accustomed to seeing in the dark
He then saw a dark humanoid figure unsheath his sword and lunge at the demon but it created a hole where the sword was aimed and quickly closed it making the sword stuck in its belly as it began to swallow it
"You demons never learn" His sword suddenly set ablaze letting the demon explode and cover him entirely with blood
Astra stared at the blood on his body with disgust as he decided to go home for the day, he then saw the door to his house open and he had a bad feeling
When he entered he saw some blood on the floor which made his eyes widen as he searched for his family members, he saw his father's head separated from his body and knelt with his lips quivering
"Aghhhhh!" He screamed at the top of his lungs
"How" He muttered
'Saya... '
He then ran quickly and opened Saya's room to find her body all mangled up and disfigured, he wanted to scream with all his might but couldn't a thing, he then felt the tears flow down his cheeks as he touched them
"Saya!!!" He screamed till he lost his voice and could only make a small sound
At the funeral, all the others talked about was their safety now that his family was dead, they didn't care the least about them
When everyone was gone, now began to rain but Astra stood there unwilling to move and heard a footstep behind him
"I hate to be rude but are you just going to stand there and be gloomy or are you going to avenge them" Said the boy behind him
Astra then looked back to look at him, the not had blond hair and blue eyes as he was dressed in a white top and dark trousers, he looked like he had come from a rich family
"Who are you" Astra asked him dejectedly
"I'm Kai, I'm planning on building a team for hunting demons, you in?" He asked
"Not—" Before he could reply completely he was cut off by Kai
"And if your answer is no do you think you can defeat the demons all around the East, not to mention the North-south, and west areas, try to think before you answer next time," Kai said with a sly smile
Although Kai was starting to piss him off he couldn't deny that it was true, his sister and his father took care of other areas while his mother had died protecting one
"Fine" He replied
"Good now that's one person on the team" He clapped his hands cheerfully
"Wait—"
"Now we can get to work cut Astra off again
"Don't mess with me, how are we supposed to achieve anything with just the two of us? "He yelled
"Ah is that what you think" He smirked
He quickly appears at Astra's side with a finger pointed at his neck making Astra panic a little as he pushes Kai off him
"Naturally this group is incomplete but I'm sure the other members will be splendid" He grinned
"Why do you want to do this" Astra asked
Kai then put his hands together as his face suddenly turned dark making Astra think he may have tried too much
"Because I feel like," He said making Astra's face turn sour
'This guy might be an idiot'
"Now then, there are demons at the market side so we need to hurry," He said as he was already ahead by far making it hard for Astra to keep up
When they finally reached there they found a lot of shops had been destroyed along with the products
"What took you so long" Kai scolded
Naturally, Astra didn't answer as he studied the demon, it stood tall and imposing with black scales and red glowing eyes
"I thought your family was killed guess not" It smelled
Alex brought out his sword and lunged at him with anger but the demon raised his hand to grab his sword thereby lighting him on fire and making him shout in pain
"Damn... It" Alex glared with intense killing intent
While it was distracted by Alex Kai quickly snuck up and summoned a knife slicing into the demon's neck letting a lot of blood spay out letting the demon drop dead
Alex then saw an illusion of a boy who was abused by everyone and hugged the boy as he cried in Astras arms and the illusion faded away
'Could that have been the demon in his past life, now I wonder how demons are formed' he thought
